Burkina Faso vs Qatar: Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Burkina Faso
- Qatar
How they compare
Qatar currently reports 0.0291 Mt CO2e against 0.0275 Mt CO2e in Burkina Faso, a difference of 0.0016 Mt CO2e.
That makes Qatar's figure about 1.1 times Burkina Faso's.
The two have swapped places 4 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Qatar ahead.
Burkina Faso ranks 37th and Qatar ranks 34th of 187 countries.
Qatar has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of nitrous oxide (N2O), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
